Brenda Barattini, 28, was found guilty of the attempted murder of 42-year-old Sergio Fernandez in November 2017 at her Cordoba pad, Metro UK reported.

She confessed that she plotted revenge against her ex-boyfriend after he shared their sex tapes and X-rated photos of her with friends.

“It violated my privacy, my life and my career,” Barattini told the court.

Prosecutors allege she blindfolded him, then performed a sex act on him before she sliced through 90 percent of his penis.

“After she put the blindfold on, she told me I had to guess where she was touching me,” Fernandez told the court. “She also wanted to tie me up but I didn’t let her.”

Fernandez testified he “suddenly felt something” — and believed she wanted to kill him during the gory attack.

He spent the next eight days in a coma and said he now lives in “constant fear” that women want to kill him.

The jury of four men and four women unanimously convicted Barattini in the attempted murder.

Her lawyer said she plans to appeal the conviction.

“No one has ever been convicted in this country of attempted murder for a penis wound,” the lawyer said.
